About Medical Mile

Clearing an office in Medical Mile

The Medical Mile runs along Michigan Street on the hill just northeast of downtown, from Monroe Avenue east toward College Avenue, home to Corewell Health's Butterworth Hospital, the Van Andel Institute, the Michigan State University College of Human Medicine and Grand Valley State University health programs. Hospital administration, medical research, life sciences, physician groups and healthcare-related firms dominate the office space.

Office space here is mostly in hospital-related towers, research buildings and medical office buildings, including newer projects such as the Doug Meijer Medical Innovation Building at 109 Michigan St. NW. Loading docks are often shared with clinical and research operations, so office clear-outs must work around patient traffic, controlled access and lab equipment.

Local best practices

Planning a Medical Mile move-out

What experienced facilities teams account for in this district before the first desk comes apart.

  1. Coordinate with hospital or campus security and facilities staff, since docks on the Medical Mile serve clinical deliveries and access is tightly controlled.
  2. Schedule office removals around hospital shift changes and peak patient arrival times, when Michigan Street and nearby ramps are busiest.
  3. Separate lab benches, research equipment and clinical furniture from standard office furniture early, because they often need their own handling and paperwork.
  4. Plan truck routes for the steep grade on Michigan Street hill, which gets slick in winter and slows loaded trucks.
  5. Confirm parking ramp clearances and dock heights before move day, since many medical buildings load from inside a ramp.
